This is a exciting build! great pictures I will sub to come back. Drew is building a SJ for me on this years build list, I'm super excited as well. I have one of his earlier OM's that is a spectacular guitar.

Take Care.

My apologies I just saw your comment. I’d love to hear more about that OM as well as the SJ! My SJ is in the spray booth so stay tuned! I’m super excited

That is just beautiful. I have long been inspired by the Olson school of luthery but after having struggled to try to replicate some of those features I can appreciate why they cost so much. As my mother says, I would love the be a fly on the wall in that shop! Thanks for sharing the pictures of this in progress.

You’re not kidding! I’d be embarrassed to know the number of times I’ve watch every interview with Jim Olson. Seeing bits of his shop and now pictures of Drew’s really makes me want to take a long trip North. Not being a woodworker of any real measure the whole process is totally captivating to me.
